Isaiah 16
1 O Lord, send forth the Lamb, the Ruler of the earth, from the Rock of the desert to the mountain of the daughter of Zion.
Enviád cordero al enseñoreador de la tierra, desde la Piedra del desierto al monte de la hija de Sión.
2 And this shall be: like a bird fleeing away, and like fledglings flying from the nest, so will the daughters of Moab be at the passage of Arnon.
Y será como ave espantada, que se huye de su nido, así serán las hijas de Moab a los vados de Arnón.
3 Form a plan. Call a council. Let your shadow be as if it were night, even at midday. Conceal the fugitives, and do not betray the wanderers.
Toma consejo, haz juicio: pon tu sombra en el mediodía como la noche: esconde los desterrados, no descubras al huido.
4 My fugitives will live with you. Become a hiding place, O Moab, from the face of the destroyer. For the dust is at its end; the miserable one has been consumed. He who trampled the earth has failed.
Moren en ti mis desterrados, o! Moab: séles escondedero de la presencia del destruidor; porque el chupador fenecerá, el destruidor tendrá fin, el hollador será consumido de sobre la tierra.
5 And a throne will be prepared in mercy, and One shall sit upon it in truth, in the tabernacle of David, judging and seeking judgment, and quickly repaying what is just.
Y componerse ha trono en misericordia; y asentarse ha sobre él en firmeza en el tabernáculo de David quien juzgue, y busque el juicio, y apresure la justicia.
6 We have heard of the pride of Moab; he is very proud. His pride and his arrogance and his indignation is more than his strength.
Oído hemos la soberbia de Moab, soberbio mucho: su soberbia, y su arrogancia, y su altivez: mas sus mentiras no serán firmes.
7 For this reason, Moab will wail to Moab; each one will wail. Speak of their wounds to those who rejoice upon the brick walls.
Por tanto aullará Moab, todo él aullará: gemiréis por los fundamentos de Kir-jareset, empero heridos.
8 For the suburbs of Heshbon are deserted, and the lords of the Gentiles have cut down the vineyard of Sibmah. Its vines have arrived even at Jazer. They have wandered in the desert. Its seedlings have been abandoned. They have crossed over the sea.
Porque las vides de Jesebón fueron taladas, y las vides de Sibma: señores de naciones hollaron sus generosos sarmientos que habían llegado hasta Jazer: habían cundido hasta el desierto: sus nobles plantas se extendieron, pasaron la mar.
9 I will weep with the tears of Jazer over this, the vineyard of Sibmah. I will inebriate you with my tears, Heshbon and Elealeh! For the sound of those who trample has rushed over your vintage and over your harvest.
Por lo cual lamentaré con lloro a Jazer de la viña de Sibma: embriagarte he de mis lágrimas, o! Jesebón, y Eleale; porque sobre tus cosechas, y sobre tu segada caerá la canción.
10 And so, rejoicing and exultation will be taken away from Carmel, and there will be no jubilation or exultation in the vineyards. He who was accustomed to tread will not tread out the wine in the winepress. I have taken away the sound of those who tread.
Quitado es el gozo y la alegría del campo fértil: en las viñas no cantarán, ni jubilarán: no pisará vino en los lagares el pisador: la canción hice cesar.
11 Over this, my heart will resonate like a harp for Moab, and my inner most being for the brick wall.
Por tanto mis entrañas sonarán como arpa sobre Moab; y mis intestinos sobre Kir-jareset.
12 And this shall be: when it is seen that Moab has struggled upon his high places, he will enter his holy places to pray, but he will not prevail.
Y acaecerá que cuando Moab pareciere que está cansado sobre los altos, entonces vendrá a su santuario a orar, y no podrá.
13 This is the word that the Lord has spoken to Moab concerning that time.
Esta es la palabra que pronunció Jehová sobre Moab desde aquel tiempo.
14 And now the Lord has spoken, saying: In three years, like the years of a hired hand, the glory of Moab concerning the entire multitude of the people will be taken away, and what is left behind will be small and weak and not so numerous.
Empero ahora habló Jehová, diciendo: Dentro de tres años, como años de mozo de soldada, será abatida la gloria de Moab con toda su multitud, aunque grande; y sus residuos serán pocos, pequeños, no fuertes.
